Softly wraps around the body

Merino wool is also known as a natural air conditioner. Its excellent temperature regulating properties keep you warm on chilly days and comfortable even on hot days.

This soft comfort that wraps around your body is perfect for air-conditioned offices and short outings. Vlas Blomme's front-opening wrap cardigan is one of the best pieces to fully enjoy the texture of merino wool.

It is made from the wool of Merino sheep that are raised in the wilderness of the Arles region in southern France. It is a non-mulesing wool that is produced in very small quantities, and it is bulkier, lighter, and has better heat retention than conventional merino wool. The soft and gentle texture of the fabric is not itchy, so you can wear it stress-free.

Add just the right amount of individuality to your outfit

This merino wool open-front wrap cardigan has a relaxed feel with a roomy silhouette while still being elegant. At first glance it looks simple, but the wrap design adds a subtle individuality. It can also be used as a pullover by closing the buttons, which is a nice feature that expands the range of styles you can wear. The rustic wooden buttons and curled hem are also points that add an adorable accent.

Available in three colors: deep chestnut CHESTNU, calm and elegant NAVY, and soft MEDIUM GRAY. All of them are easy to match with any style of clothing, from dresses to pants, making it a piece that you can use every day.

Discovering Kortrijk Linen

Vlas Blomme was founded in 2007. The brand name means "linen flower" in Flemish, the language of the Flanders region of Belgium. They develop natural and fashionable clothes using linen from Kortrijk, Belgium, which has flourished as the center of the linen industry for centuries, and their products, which were created after a quest for high-quality linen, are sold in top-level stores around the world, including London, Paris, and New York.

Linen is water-resistant, and the more you wash it, the softer it becomes, as the thread becomes thinner than cashmere, and the more you use it, the deeper the flavor it becomes, and the more it becomes a part of your daily life. They were looking for the finest linen that would fit into such a lifestyle, and they found Kortrijk Linen from Belgium. Kortrijk linen is a general term for the flax yarn that is considered to be the best of the year, grown on the farm of the Belgian linen spinning factory JOS VANNESTE. Linen has been cultivated in the Flanders region of Belgium since before Christ, and the Leie River, also known as the "Golden River," flows through Kortrijk, which has played an important role in the linen manufacturing process. The mild climate with moderate rainfall is beneficial for linen cultivation, and they continue to produce varieties that take advantage of the geographical advantages.

Kortrijk linen, whose quality has been maintained through many years of know-how, is known for its fine fibers and high quality. As a natural fiber, it has a rustic appearance, and is also characterized by its durability and luster. It has excellent water absorption and dissipation properties compared to cotton and silk, and its smooth texture and gentleness on the skin are also major characteristics. Kortrijk linen, which is also the raw material for Irish linen, is highly regarded in Europe as the world's top quality linen.
